Every time I visit Universal I stay at this Hilton, the staff has always been incredible and the same can be said for their rooms. I had booked this room rather late, a week in advance. We had decided to see a concert at the Gibson Amphitheater. There is a free shuttle service the operates between the Hilton and Universal... More

Friday evening seafood and prime rib buffet is $44. I didn't buy it, but so many people did that it was slow going as i made my way from the parking elevators to the front desk. (Self-parking was extremely tight due to hotel events.) When I got to the desk the staff was friendly and professional. The room was on... More

The location is what swayed me to stay at this hotel as the primary purpose of our stay was to visit the Universal Studios theme park. So I went ahead and booked, requesting a high floor, theme park view, alcove room, We arrived at 11.30am on a Sunday morning. I was expecting to arrange for luggage to be stored until... More

We (adult family) stayed at the Hilton Los Angels / Universal City Last Summer. We picked it as some relatives had stayed some months earlier. It is a nice hotel near to Universal City and theme park, just a short walk away over a foot bridge. The food was good, breakfast had all the variety you could want ‘buffet style’;... More

Stayed at the ... For a weekend together with FOUR adolescents and had one of the best hotel stays ever. Although the reservation of the second room was made later, they had connecting rooms waiting for us and held them despite our past midnight arrival.  The rooms are pretty good standard, rather good noise insulation, shower with hand shower and...

A great hotel if you are visiting Universal (it is the closest universal hotel). We arrived really early on an international flight and even though they were heavily booked, they managed to rearrange things so we could check in early to shower and have a quick nap before our day at universal. We were really appreciative of this. There were... More

We stayed at the Hilton Universal City in Jan 2012. We changed our mind on arrival and requested two rooms, Pamela (supervisor on Front Desk) was fantastic and identified our needs immediately and matched them to a King Corner suite with connecting room for the teenagers, offered a discounted rate for the second room and was fantastic for the whole...

We stayed at this Hilton a few years ago and loved the location, spacious rooms and Hotel facilities so we decided to stay again on our return to the US.When we checked into our room the first thing we noticed was that the floor had not been vacuumed from the previous guests - this immediately gives the guest a rather...

After finding a good airfare deal to LAX, we choose to spend a weekend and visit Universal Studios. After some research of hotels, we decided on the Hilton Universal Studios. Both the Hilton and the Sheraton are very convenient to Universal Studios. We never arranged for a rental car for this trip and took the Supper Shuttle from LAX to... More

We will definitely stay in this hotel again next time we go to LA. The hotel is nice, service is great. It's a few minutes walk to the Universal Studios City Walk. The dinner buffet in the hotel is fantastic. The buffet has so much variety that it's impossible for you to try everything. My favorites are lobster, raw oyster,... More
